Social bookmarks allow readers to save and share articles, blogs or columns from their favorite online resources to share with the world. Unlike browser-based bookmarks, these can be accessed from any computer that has an internet connection.
Digg allows
readers to submit and vote on their favorite content. Once
submitted, users from across the world browse and rank content.
Del.icio.us was
one of the first web-based bookmarking services to catch traction
amongst internet users. Del.icio.us allows you to tag content,
which gives the community an opportunity to search content
based on keywords.
Reddit is
another service that allows readers to submit and share articles.
Though the basic functions of Reddit resemble that of Digg
and Del.icio.us, the stripped down feel makes the site easy
to navigate and command.
